  1. Welcome to the Department of Mathematics Chatham High School

  2. Department Goals • Develop Problem Solving Skills • Develop Critical Thinking Skills • Develop Skills to Experience Success in Continuing Education • Develop Skills to Experience Success in Future Career Choices • Value the Importance Of Mathematics in Society

  3. Skills • Monitor and Reflect on the Process of Mathematical Problem Solving • Communicate using Mathematics • View the Relevance of Mathematics in Other Subjects • Strengthen Computational Skills and Number Concepts

  4. Skills • Understand the Meanings of Operations • Make Reasonable and Meaningful Estimates • Use Technology to Strengthen Mathematical Knowledge

  5. Course Sequence • Concepts of Algebra IB • Concepts of Geometry • Concepts of Algebra II • Algebra 3/Trigonometry

  6. Course Sequence • Geometry • Algebra II • Precalculus • Calculus

  7. Course Sequence • Honors Geometry • Honors Algebra II • Honors Precalculus • AP Calculus AB or • AP Calculus BC

  8. Assessment: Concepts • Use the following words to complete the statements below. (1 point each) • POINT BISECTOR LINE SEGMENT RAY • PLANE CONGRUENT MIDPOINT LINE • COLLINEAR SKETCHPAD SEGMENT ADDITION POSTULATE • _______________________: points on the same line • _______________________: line segments that have the same length • _______________________: the point that divides a line segments into two equal pieces • _______________________: line, segment or ray that intersects a line segment at its midpoint • _______________________: a location in space • _______________________: a flat surface that extends endlessly in all directions • _______________________: a part of a line; it has one endpoint • _______________________: if three points are on the same line and B is between A and C, then AB + BC = AC

  9. Assessment: Regular • Identify: • What are two rays that share a common endpoint? • A line that goes through the midpoint of a segment? • Define Supplementary - • Define Postulate – • Solve for x: 2x+56 6x-20

  10. Assessment: Honors • A __________________ is a statement in Geometry that is accepted without proof. • The midpoint of segment RQ is located at P (4 , -1). Find the coordinates of R if Q is at (3 , -2). • Find the measure of the supplementary angles M and X , if the measure of M is 5 less than 4 times the measure of X. • Identify the intersection of the 2 planes. • Identify 4 non-coplanar points.

  11. Assessment: Concepts • Graph the following circle identifying the center and a point on the circle: (x – 3)² + (y + 1)² = 4 Centered at (3 , -1) Radius of 2

  12. Assessment: Regular • Graph the following circle identifying the center and a point on the circle: x² + y² - 6x + 2y + 6 = 0 x² - 6x + y² + 2y = -6 (x² - 6x + 9) + (y² + 2y + 1) = -6 + 9 + 1 (x-3)² +(y+1)² = 4 Centered at (3 , -1) Radius of 2

  13. Assessment: Honors • Give the equation of the circle given: Center (3 , -1) Point on the Circle (4, 4) Need to know the distance formula to find the radius

  14. Electives • Probability and Statistics (semester course) • Discrete Math (semester course) • Math Applications in Society (semester course) • Math Workshop (semester course) • AP Statistics
